Sleepless

Sleepless has to be one of my favorite songs. It was written at time where all I did was go to work (full-time), go to college, then work on building my studio (Cherry Sky) and perform. As turbulent as it sounds I found a peace in the chaos of having a busy schedule and I wanted to convey that in this song.

Lyrics:

I come alive in the night-light

Feel the rhythm of beat//

Kicking back like a old 45

And I ride at the right height

All this hoping and waiting

Is killing off  

they hating  I’m peelin off

Gotta get it from the get go//

Lets go, now this could be my last hour 

That not fear 

my n**** that’s power 

so we up until the wee hours 

posted on the block and devour 

anything that couldn’t be ours

shit they barking now but we  louder//echo

 play no game (play the game)

and never sleep (never sleep)

 stay on aim (stay on  aim)

im just in too deep( in too deep)

so here I am 

took a leap of faith

flew across the Atlantic

just to get a taste

Fade from the haze

Trying to find my wayz//

Doin business with satan

Till my final days

[Hook]

Sipping while I’m severing got my mind on that cream x 3

Sitting back and counting stacks I’m just chasing my dreams

Sipping while I’m severing got my mind on that cream x 3

Sitting back and counting stacks I’m just chasing my dreams

You ever see the devils flower  bloom

Turn off the lights step in a crowd room

Crank up them dranks//

Turnt up that music

 We gone party, rage and get stupid//

 party, rage and get stupid//

this is sound rebel music//

nimba county

how we do it//

running like that time borrowed

never looking for tomorrow//

Got no regrets (echo)

And hate those fears

Aint broke a sweat

18 years

Blood sweat and tears//

I guess they can’t relate

I put it all on the line

I’ll see you at the gates//

Addicted to hope//

up all night//

Building my empire//

Ready for the fight//

(Hook)

Hope you enjoy
